i have tried it, but i can never seem to get it right...i've gone head first into the bottom a bunch of times trying it & have sorta given up on it...it's definitely a really cool thing to see.Quote:

Made some calls in to work to say I wasn't coming, but don't even remember making them.
"Post concussion syndrome." Weird sh:t....
a great place for body surfing because it has the hawaii deep water power even in small waves but has a sandy bottom (instead of the usual lava or coral). you don't even have to kick much...but the back suction on yer feet will pull yer fins right off too....
I bodyboard there and yea the breaks are tough especially after the dunes. I think Irene helped out a lot but man I can't imagine bodysurfing there
I can't wait to see this movie! I grew up bodysurfing a couple of miles north of the wedge in newport Beach. I still have the Churchill fins I got for my 14th birthday. I've bodyboarded as well and now I'm trying to learn to surf.
But, on days when I'm swimming in shore break, I bodysurf and still love it.
I'll be first in line when this film comes out.
